Kappa is an Italian sportswear brand originally founded in 1916. It started off as a sock and underwear company, but is now famous for manufacturing a multitude sporting kits. The brand produce them for various national and international sports teams from football to basketball, netball to boxing and many more.

This retro brand has a 100-year-old legacy, and has had various pinnacle moments over the decades. It was incredibly popular back in the 1980’s and 90’s, and is part of a collective trend of throwback sportswear brands that have made a comeback in the last couple of years.

Kappa’s Omini iconic brand logo is recognisable all over the world, and became famous due to its association with European football clubs such as Juventus. It features a man and a woman sitting back-to-back in the nude, which according to the brand represents equality. This logo can be found emblazoned across most Kappa track jackets, tracksuit bottoms, hoodies and t-shirts.

As well as sports, the brand is also known for its iconic tracksuits in the streetwear scene and as such they have quickly become one of the must-have brands of this year. Kappa’s profile was brought back to mainstream attention as various pieces from the collection have been spotted on many A-list celebrities including Brooklyn Beckham, Kim Kardashian and Bella Hadid.

One of the brands bestsellers are the popper side tracksuit bottoms. They were a key feature at London Fashion Week worn by many fashionistas and bloggers. The parts of the collection that contain a taping panel are a huge hit. Most people like to mix and match the pieces, as they can be worn on a night out with a pair of heels or whilst working out at the gym. The versatility of the garment is endless.
